Daniel’s POV The sky was a dull gray, packed with clouds that hung low like a suffocating shroud. The damp chill clung to everything, thickening and oppressing the air. The streets were deserted, with just the occasional drip of rain coming off the leaves of the trees breaking the calm. I stepped out of the tent, looked at the dark sky, sighed, and didn't know what to do. I wanted to go back and look for Athena because something was clearly wrong, and I was the only one who could find it. I know Athena is out there, and she may not be in the best of health. Damon suddenly approached me, he couldn't walk well since he had been injured in his leg during the battle, and it was terrible, I thought I was going to lose him, but Damon is a strong man, he wouldn't go down without a fight. He walked closer to me and stopped when he was only a few inches away from me, calling out "Alpha!" and slightly bowing his head “Damon! How is your leg?” I asked, and he slightly bent his head to look
Daniel’s POV As the sun rose beyond the horizon, it casts a warm orange glow across the sky. The air was cool and crisp. The damp grass gleams in the sunlight. There were no clouds in the sky, and the sun's rays stream through the trees, casting long and magnificent shadows. Amidst the magnificent view of nature, there was a continuous fight, and the warriors are fully in their wolf forms, armed with teeth, claws, and the strength of their wolf forms. Andrew came towards me with a furious resolve engraved on his face, he growled loudly and his boned cracked as he shifted into his wolf form, Andrew, like me, had suffered many injuries as a result of the fight, but neither of us is willing to give up on this war. The struggle for supremacy between the two of us was significantly more intense. The fight between us was vicious. Fur flew, blood spilled, and growls and howls filled the early morning air. None of the warriors were willing to back down and it felt as if we all had enough
Daniel’s POV I was shocked to see Athena at Andrea's mercy; I don't know what happened to cause this; I know I haven't paid enough attention to Andrea since I found out Athena was my mate, and she ran away with my unborn child; I slowly moved forward and groan, the poison on the knife spreading across the rest of my body. "What exactly is this, Andrea? What exactly are you doing?"I yelled at her, and she cackled. I noticed men mobilized behind her, as well as another man standing alongside her. My eyes caught with Athena's and I noticed indifference in her eyes, she didn't have any emotions after seeing me again, and I know she must have hated me so much, one of the men suddenly walked inside the van and brought out a tiny kid, my eyes opened when I saw him and I realized he was my son right away! "What do you think this is, huh?"Andrea inquired, her eyes flitting about me and Andrew in contempt. "I know I haven't paid as much attention to you in recent years, but that doesn't
Daniel’s POV The air was tense as each party waited for the first person to strike, and it would escalate into a full-fledged conflict. My men and Andrew's men had stopped fighting, and they all had their eyes on us, perplexity on their faces since none of them knew what was going on. My eyes looked around for a means to save Athena and my son; I wasn't going to give up on any of them, nor would I give up my title to her. I've heard stories about her father's tyranny, which caused him to lose his title. He had been unjust to the other packs who were under him, and he thought he could rule as he pleased, but the people had had enough, and my father was brave enough to step forward and take the throne from him. Looking at Andrea and her brother, who appears to be a puppet, shows that the apple doesn't fall far from the tree, they are exactly like their father, and I am not about to give up on what my father fought so hard for. "Alpha Daniel, make your choice, there isn't enough t
Andrew’s POV I wanted to see the moon goddess and ask her if what we were going through was fair before returning to continue the war from where we left off, as I look up to see the sky. I am a few months older than Daniel, but my father granted him the title since I was an illegitimate child; my mother and father had a one-night encounter and conceived me as a result, and I was treated unfairly despite being the eldest child, my mother wasn’t treated any better. I spent the twenty-seven years I've been alive despising Daniel because he had everything I desired. When he was shown to the public and openly learned everything about the Pack and had tutors who were happy to teach the alpha's son, I was made to hide in the shadows and everything I learned was a self-concept. I saw my father look at Daniel with love and adoration, but he never looked at me that way; instead, I saw disdain in his eyes, as if I were the one who wanted to be born into this cruel world, so after my fath
Daniel's POV I tried to open my eyes, but I squeezed them shut as soon as a ray of light passed through them. I groaned and adjusted on the hard surface I was laying on before I opened my eyes. The first thing I saw was a tree; I was lying under a tree when my eyes flew around in alert, and I discovered I was resting on the floor in the midst of nowhere; I then observed a small hand on my face, which I instantly held. I looked up to see a boy's face that looked exactly like mine, I smiled and knew he was my son right away, I tried sitting up but ended up groaning unable to move, I noticed a cloth wrapped around my injured stomach and was shocked at who could have attended to me, the last thing I remembered was Athena walking away with our son while I collapsed "Don't move too much, or you'll reopen the injury."When I heard Athena's words, I instantly raised my head to look at her; she was heading towards me, holding some leaves in her palm; our son giggled and stood up, moving a
Daniel’s POVThe stroll through the bushy path was messy, and I wanted to help Athena carry our son, but the look on her face indicated that she was not ready to talk to me, so I took a few steps away from her, walking at a distance, so she wouldn't strike out at me, I could only watch them from afar. I began to feel weak, and my legs got heavier to carry; I knew the herbs had slowed the spreading of the poison throughout my body, but the poison was still spreading, and I was having difficulty walking.I abruptly stopped walking when I couldn't move any longer and my vision became blurry; I wanted to shout out to Athena, but she was too far ahead and didn't care about me, who was far behind her. “A… Ath… Athena!” As I fought to call, I noticed Athena turn her back to gaze at me, her eyes widening as I collapsed on the floor and lost consciousness. ***I opened my eyes and groaned, my head felt heavy, and I grabbed my head hard, I attempted to stand up and noticed I was inside a hut
Daniel’s POV We strolled away from the crowd and came to a halt in an isolated area; no one was around and the only sound that could be heard was the sight of our breathing; I exhaled and looked at her, waiting to see who would break the silence first; I moistened my lips, unsure how to begin my words. "I'm sorry for how I treated you back in the pack, I shouldn't have treated you like an animal and I had no idea we were mated," I said, and she cackled."So you're only apologizing because you discovered we're mates? Was that the only reason you realized everything you did was wrong?"Athena inquired, and I moved closer to her; she raised her hand to stop me, and I stopped, clasping my hands behind my back and sighing; I wasn't good with apologies. "No, it's not just because we're mates, I regret every action I took, and I only realized how wrong I was after you left, I had to start looking for you and I swear Athena, I have spent those few years searching for you and our son," I rep
